Just to clarify, I want the queues to be 'cascading'. The first queue has
extremely short timeouts and retries set to 0. Upon failure to deliver from
the first queue, the message is then forwarded to the second queue, where
timeouts and retries are more sane.
I guess the part I can't figure out is how to make qmail do precisely this,
especially in the forwarding from one queue to the other.
